yeah, spot on - regret's a heavy load to carry at the end

Failing every day is better than reaching 80 and realizing there were no failures because nothing was ever tried

yeah that's the beauty of it - unexpected twists make the best stories sometimes

True, but sometimes the journey's more fun without a strict map - just wandering and seeing what happens

haha yeah that gif nails it - total agreement from me too

Where someone starts in life doesn't have to determine where they end up

Continuing a journey through the Bible, certain passages speak loudly; today: As long as my breath is in me, and the spirit of God is in my nostrils; My lips will not speak falsehood, and my tongue will

This stance isn’t anti-trans; it’s framed as support for women’s rights and fairness in sport The predictable part of the response is the exclusive focus on trans women, while many seem unbothered by trans

There is an effect on a very small fraction of the population that is transgender, but changing all sport to accommodate that would disadvantage all biological female competitors.

That is the problem — it creates unfairness and can put athletes at risk. The concern is not opposition to transgender people, but the impact on non-trans competitors.

A trans man assigned female at birth doesn’t have those same skeletal advantages, but testosterone treatment can increase size, strength, and speed, creating an advantage.

A trans woman who went through male puberty developed muscle and skeletal structure that, even after hormone therapy, can leave that person larger, stronger, and faster than the average woman.

On average, men outperform women in most sports — they tend to be bigger, stronger and faster.

There would be an issue with that as well. Trans athletes on testosterone therapy or taking estrogen blockers can retain advantages over many women. In sport, basic fairness is important, which is why

Yeah, it's like a manual for real life that never goes out of style

Blessed is the man who walks not in the counsel of the wicked, nor stands in the way of sinners, not sits in the seat of scoffers; but his delight is in the Law of the Lord, and on his Law he meditates

Deepening faith and reading the Bible highlighted Psalms 1. With everything seen in the world—politics, economics and more—and the constant need to engage, argue and debate, Psalms 1 brought peace

There should be an honest discussion about possible supremacist tendencies in some nationalist ideologies

A frank conversation is needed about alleged supremacist elements within certain nationalist movements Arguments that start with a critique of Zionism often slide into claims of supremacism and then refocus

It's not about individuals, it's about alleged supremacist ideology It won't be long before the framing shifts from Zionism → alleged supremacist ideology → back to individuals
